Question

What are the parts of a red blood cell?

Answer 1

Red Blood Cells(RBCs):

1. Plasma and fluid matrix make up blood, which is a form of unique connective tissue.
2. Plasma is the fluid matrix that makes up around 55% of the blood.
3. RBC, WBC, and platelets are the three types of cells that make up formed components, which account for around 45 percent of the blood.
4. In the blood, all of the cells perform a variety of jobs.
5. Erythrocytes or red blood corpuscles are other names for red blood cells. They make up the majority of blood cells.
6. Red blood cells are made up of the following components:
   1. Cell membrane: RBCs have a bilayer of protein and lipid in their cell membrane. They help the cells to be more flexible.
   2. Cytoplasm: RBCs have an iron-bound protein called haemoglobin in their cytoplasm, which aids in the transport of gases from body cells to the lungs and vice versa. Blood's red colour comes from haemoglobin, which enables it to transport oxygen from the lungs to all body tissues.
